Results, day 54:
Inferno (Cinder's Theme) < Zenith, 15-20
Fateful Confrontation < Glass, 16-19
Homecoming Hijinx > Nilin the Memory Hunter, 21-13

Well, that's definitely not the retirement match I imagined when the bracket went up, but here we are. And we've finally finished round 2 of the side bracket.

I really didn't expect Zenith to win today... I mean it's not bad but when I compare it to Inferno it's not even close.

Not even sure if any of my picks are alive anymore. What do I root for now?!?

Tbh I think I'm rooting for Amusement Park at this point. Probably only my 2nd or 3rd favorite song left but I think it would be a really cool song to see win.

Gross. Please no. Not that Primal Dialga is a massive improvement, but I hope it wins tomorrow.

DISREGARD:

Results, day 55:
End of All (Land) < New World Order, 17-18
Striking the Octopus > Fallen Angel, 19-18
The Azure Arbitrator < Hopes and Dreams, 17-19

Well, if I was going to lose one match I voted for, having Octopunch advance instead still makes for a pretty good day. You might say it satisfied all my hopes and dreams. But man, we're still getting super close matches all the way. In fact, both matches 1 and 2 started with the winner taking a big lead, losing it entirely, and then coming from behind at the end to eke out the victory.


Unfortunately, I forgot I opened the match late yesterday and had a request for a vote at 10:09. Technically the matches end at 10:22.

edit: Okay, so I have the matches at 18-18, 19-18, and 17-19. Assuming those are not errors, I will be rerunning the first two matches tomorrow. We have no way of knowing what would have happened in the last 22 minutes if I had kept the topic open properly. I'm going to allow that a two-vote separation is probably secure and wouldn't change, but one vote is too much of a gamble to be fair. And hell, we're going to have to redo EOA/NWO anyway.

I'd be okay with Amusement Park winning both because I like it but also because azuarc's irrational hatred for it makes it funny.

Day 54 rankings:

Inferno (Cinder's Theme) >>> Fateful Confrontation >> Glass > Zenith >>>> Nilin the Memory Hunter >>> Homecoming Hijinx

Pretty strong main bracket matches, but bad side bracket match. Maybe it had something to do with the main bracket being in R3 but the side bracket still being in R2.

Now I can go in peace to do my chores once again, expecting to not lose another day.

Say the same thing with Amusement Park, and that's where I stand right now. People have been hating on Fetus this year. That's going to be enough to make the difference.
